Voyager Cataloging Module
Preference settings for public services “view-only” users
There are a few settings in the Voyager staff cataloging module which view-only users
may want to adjust. One setting automatically truncates a search--if this option is not chosen
searches have to be manually truncated by adding “?” Other options can retain the last search,
and display bib and item records without going through an intermediate screen if the result is
only one record. Users may also want to set background colors for bib, mfhd, and item records
to provide visual clues when looking at related records and make sure the font size is large
enough to properly display diacritics.
How to change preferences
In the Options menu in the toolbar, choose Preferences. Recommended settings for the
Work Flow tab and the Colors/Fonts tab are shown below.
